Women In Fashion Law Webinar

On 13th March 2021, in celebration of International Women's Day 2021, we hosted our first event of the year ‘The Fashion Law Edit Presents: Women In Fashion Law’.

We heard first-hand from some of the finest UK and US lawyers on their experiences within fashion law and the future of fashion from a legal perspective. In this webinar, TFLE’s founder, Bunmi Jenfa and five lawyers (Gina Bibby - Withersworldwide, Sophia Daw - Harbottle & Lewis, Alice Pang - McCarter & English, Priya Mattu - Fox Williams and Lucy Coffey - Fox Williams) covered the following topics:

  1. Defining Fashion Law

  2. How to become a lawyer with a practice centred around the fashion industry

  3. The future of fashion from a legal perspective (including the impact of Coronavirus and Brexit)

  4. Being a woman in the legal profession and how to persevere despite the barriers
